Jonathan 'The King' Rhys Meyers is at it again. The 'historical drama' The Tudors: Series 3 kicks off on BBC2 on Friday 21 August.
The absurdly good-looking and slim Rhys Meyers admits he looks nothing like Henry. Which is fine – it's clear from the outset that the facts are incidental to the entertainment. Singer Joss Stone is boldly cast as Anne of Cleves.

Maybe in the Tudors, Henry's famous dismissal of Anne will make sense:
"Oh my God! Look at her! It's like a bad dream"
"Yeah, bit of a Flanders 'mare, innit?"
